Lunch with Leaders is a recurring series within our Faculty Development Fridays programming, during which you will be able to hear from and speak directly with OHSU leaders from across the institution.

Session format:

- What did you wish someone told you about navigating leadership roles in an academic medical center?
- How did you know you wanted to go into leadership?
- What is your professional niche and how did you find it?
- Two, 20 minute breakout discussions:
- Participants will be split into two rooms, with leaders switching rooms after 20 minutes.
- Participants can use this time to ask questions and have a conversation with speakers. If you do not feel comfortable asking a question in this format, feel free to email your questions in advance of the session to facdev@ohsu.edu.
